Wisdom and power are the ground of the respect we give to men; they being both infinite in God, are the foundation of a solemn honor to be returned to Him by His creatures. If a man make a curious engine, we honor him for his skill; if another vanquish a vigorous enemy, we admire him for his strength; and shall not the efficacy of God's power in creation, government, redemption, inflame us with a sense of the honor of His name and perfections! We admire those princes that have vast empires, numerous armies, that have a power to conquer their enemies, and preserve their own people in peace; how much more ground have we to pay a mighty reverence to God, who, without trouble and weariness, made and manages this vast empire of the world by a word and beck! What sensible thoughts have we of the noise of thunder, the power of the sun, the storms of the sea! These things, that have no understanding, have struck men with such a reverence that many have adored them as gods. What reverence and adoration does this mighty power, joined with an infinite wisdom in God, demand at our hands.

INGREDIENTS

1	cn	Asparagus (long stems)
1		Loaf GOOD square white bread
		Butter
		Mayonaise
		Salt and pepper

INSTRUCTIONS

carefully remove asparagas spears from tin, spread on towel to drain for at
least two hours ;(if some are very "fat" split in half.  remove crusts from
bread carefully spread each square with butter, and then spread carefully
and generously with mayonaise. take a spear and put diagonal on bread -
sprinkle generously with S & P roll from corner to make a tube. I then cut
the tube in half to make smaller portions - your choice pile in bowl or on
plate, cover with aluminum foil (putting in Tupperware doesn't seem to have
the same effect, who knows why) Refrigerate for several hours. Remove from
frig at least 1/2 hour before serving.
So - easy right - make it in the morning - and the 1/2 hour out of frig is
while you're driving to the party ... every party I took these two they
were the first thing gone, men, kids, everyone said, these are weird, humm
but good!
